Perhaps memorialize a thread he started-ending with just people commenting on their online friendship with Steve. I was once enamored with Wikipedia and edited articles and became friends with another editor, an anthropologist named Steve, who passed and his Talk page was memorialized-a nice sentiment.

SteveB was a tremendous help to me often when a was a clueless newbie interested in purchasing vintage drums. I recall he was an ex-officer for NYPD and suffered a lot when that hurricane hit NY/NJ area a few years back. I really liked the guy.

I tried to throw a DW party at my place once, but it didn't work out. It's not exactly practical, too much distance between members. I recall having a dilemma involving SteveB and SticksforDrums. Neither one wanted to attend if the other was there. It never came down to that anyway.

I do recall that the weather was perfect for the day I wanted. I got a whopping 1 RSVP lol.

I'm not one to speak well of the dead simply because they're dead, but Steve was a real gentleman. He was so enthusiastic about drums and drumming that it did my heart good, and he always seemed to have time for everybody, especially anybody who needed a bit of support. He struck me as one of the many members of this forum who were/are very giving and selfless.

I got to know Steve through private messages on another forum. He wrote to me out of the blue after I'd posted something silly and we corresponded (lightly) for years afterward. He was always kind and considerate, passionate about truth and injustice, and very supportive of those he called his friends. It's good to see that he's been memorialized here.

I didn't know him other than through a couple of drum forums we were both on. But, I always looked forward to reading his responses and insights on various posts, as they were always well thought out and written.

Iíve oftentimes wondered about many people on various forums where their life was. I wondered where they were they were when they faded away. Do they even play anymore? It seems so minor when speaking of health.

I met more than a few members over the years, but of those only one died that I knew. That would be Jerry Jenkins of Jenkins-Martin aka Drumjinx on many forums. It was crushing, but I know his underground drum company legacy will live on.
